    Thanks for that man,

    I was thinking that if it looks too good to be true then it is :rolleyes:

    It was advertised on 3e.. You'd think that they would have some sort of morals about what they advertise.. Obviously not!

    I suppose its no worse than the farse that are the physic lines!

    It's not a con just impossible to win without spending a good amount of € so pretty pointless

    It's gambling, except the user doesn't know they're gambling because it's disguised as an auction, which it is not. You'd be better off gambling, as the odds wouldn't be so stacked against you, and at least you'd know you were gambling.

    These are same people that brought us Play TV. Morals are not in the TV3 executives vocabulary.
